No Blue Bottles--

Ackman · 08-21-2013, 07:50 PM

I have now checked I think every major supermarket in the area and a few not so major. In spite of ConAgra saying they have local sellers--they don't.

I am sure others, at least in this area have had this issue..anyone tried Ghee? Any suggested alternatives?

I have just sliced slabs of margarine or butter in the past -- but that squeeze bottle is just so much easier and apparently the crowd favorite

The local Wal-Mart here has plenty!!

Wonder what the scoop is.

+1 on Walmart having it.

The stop and shop in New Rochelle has it in stock and on sale. However it's so 2009, unsalted butter is the way to go...

Smart & Final carries them.

dr pearl · 08-22-2013, 10:34 AM

I can't find in my local supermarkets. I have been using stick margarine and melting it before using with very good results. And why do people continue to call it squeeze butter? It's not butter.

Shiz-Nit · 08-22-2013, 11:29 AM

Kroger's and Wal-Mart both have them here.

Slamdunkpro · 08-22-2013, 01:37 PM

Our Wal-Marts quit carrying it. If there is a Shopper's Food Warehouse around they stock it.

Restaurant Depot?

Kroger's never seen one around here

Smart & Final -- not an east coast operation

New Rochelle -- about 35 minutes away, doable thanks

havent been in a few weeks, but the Stop n Shop in Tarrytown had a few boxes of them a few weeks ago. It was an end cap display and not refrigerated - it was by the bread/bakery area.

bigdogphin · 08-22-2013, 05:32 PM

They are hard to find in our neck of the woods too... I have been using tub margarine which seems to work fine for me....

I haven't seen it as RD. I buy the Jones Farm liquid margarine by the gallon. Is that what you are referring too?

Scottie · 08-23-2013, 12:12 PM

They carry Parkway and the big gallon jugs at the Restaurant Depot I go to.. I've been using the Fallon jugs and I haven't noticed any difference in my final product. I use more for moisture than flavor.
